white grape

Wine's lighter berry

White grape refers to grape varieties with green, yellow, or pale golden skin, as distinguished from red or black grapes.

The term is somewhat misleading since the grapes aren't actually white.

White grapes are eaten fresh as table grapes and used to make white wines: Chardonnay and Riesling are made from white grapes.
